Answer:

the interior angles of any triangle are equal to 180.

In other words m<BAC + m<ABC + m<ACB = 180.

Therefore,

(3x-1) + (8x-35) + (6x-5) = 180

Now that we have an equation, we can solve for x:

(3x-1) + (8x-35) + (6x-5) = 180

Combine like terms:

3x+8x+6x-1-35-5

17x-41 = 180

Add 41 to each side:

17x-41+41 = 180+41

17x=221

Divide by 17 on both sides:

x=13

Now to check if this is correct we need to plug in x for each equation and the three numbers combined should equal 180.

3x-1

3(13)-1

6x-5

6(13)-5

78-5

8x-35

8(13)-35

104-35

Now we just add them to see if they equal 180

38+73+69 = 180

x=13 is valid

$\sf{ x - 10/100 = 1800 }$

$\sf{ 100x - 10/100 = 1800}$

$\sf{ 100x - 10 = 1800 × 100}$

$\sf{100x - 10 = 180000}$

$\sf{ 100x = 180000 + 10}$

Javier and his friends go out to eat. The restaurant they chose automatically adds a 15% gratuity to their food bill since they

siniylev [52]

well, we know that 213.90 includes the 15% gratuity, so if the meal price was say "x", namely that is the 100%, and we add 15% to that, then 100% + 15% = 115%, so 213.90 is really the 115%.

now, if 213.90 is the 115.%, what is "x"? the 100%.

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 213.90&115\\ x&100 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{213.9}{x}=\cfrac{115}{100}\implies 21390=115x \\\\\\ \cfrac{21390}{115}=x\implies 186=x$

so since we know the meal without the tip is 186 bucks, the tip was then 213.90 - 186 = 27.90.

but they got extra potato wedges with butter and the waitress was wearing her best hat, they added $20 more, so the tip ended up as 27.90 + 20 = 47.90.

now, if the cost of the meal was $186 and that is the 100%, what is 47.90 off of it in percentage?

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 186&100\\ 47.90&x \end{array}\implies \cfrac{186}{47.90}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies 186x=4790 \\\\\\ x=\cfrac{4790}{186}\implies x\approx \stackrel{\%}{25.75}$
